General Comments:

The cabin is spacious, plenty of legroom, comfortable seats. Fold back seats down and you'll got minivan! I have transported different bits of furniture in it, not to mention bicycles, mopeds and a mother in law :D.

The handling is adequate, as the suspension is more-less 1:1 copy from Audi 100. As the engine scheme is also similar to Audi, it under steers. However on the highway, this is a plus - it's very stable and easy to drive.

There's quite a bit of wind noise, I guess from cracked door seals.

Original 55kw engine is not powerful enough for this car, specially when driving in 5th gear. I swapped it to Lada Niva 1.7 fuel injected engine and now things are better. On the highway, it consumes 6l/100km and top speed is around 160 km/h.
